The Pelican Brief

Did you hear the news today?

Pelican Can-Can is on his way

Looking for a new dish

Something made of fish

He is waiting for some luck

But with his web feet please don't call him a duck

I know you have some fish tales

Some gigantic as big as whales

So poets lets have some fun

Let the fish tales begin and have their run.



 How big of a fish tale do you have?
